Thanks to the GIS Society, UWT students have an opportunity to apply for funding to attend the 24th Annual WA GIS Conference May 18-21, 2020, in Downtown Tacoma.

I have promised current GIS students that they will have an opportunity to meet future employers, former GIS Cert and MSGT graduates at the event.

In years past, students were required to volunteer to obtain minimal access, but the GIS Society has (three years in a row), secured funding for a majority of our students to attend!

Well done GIS Society Officers!

Join GIS professionals from WA State for workshops and presentations.
